Cotswold Gliding Clubs expedition to Portmoak in Scotland took place last week,
11 pilots with nine aircraft headed north .
Sunday the 20th started with a light Easterly breeze Simon Buckley and Rob Corbin took a couple of launches, Caleb McKinstry and Chris Huck took advantage of the light winds to get some circuit practice in CGC's DG500 with Simon Lucas, Chris managed 25 mins on the east facing end of Binarty ( also known as Cemetery Ridge ) once the  wind freshened.
The next two days were light south westerlies so more circuits.
Wednesday saw the wind go westerly and freshen so all pilots had several hours on the ridge until late into the evening after which the DG was de rigged ready for its return south.
Thursday was forecast to be the last flyable day of the week , so all pilots rigged early and launched, we were greeted by strong ridge lift then wave to 5500 ft above the clouds until the showers upwind caused the gaps to close.
All in all a good week.
